The project that I inspected is a double storey extension on the end elevation of a cottage.
The extension has been built out of random stone to match the existing part of the property. The walls have been constructed with the random stone on the outer leaf, which is built onto backer block inside the wall with blockwork on the internal leaf, there is a cavity between the blockwork which is fully filled with insulation. The roof is pitched and clad with slates.
The extension has created a living room on the ground floor, which has a set of bi-folding doors on one elevation. A working fireplace with a chimney has been built on the gable wall. The ground floor has had underfloor heating installed.
On the 1st floor the extension has created 2 bedrooms and a bathroom.
At the time of my inspection all the walls had been drylined and the ceilings boarded ready for plastering.
